Hi Chris,
Unfortunately, I don't think it's related to that.
The "reloadable" attribute has been working like a champ for me. But today,
I added a filter (a new class, created today). As soon as I added the
configuration to the web.xml file, I started having to restart the Tomcat
server after each compile.
If I comment out the <filter> tags from web.xml, everything works fine. If
I uncomment just the <filter>...</filter> section, I start getting this
behavior again.
I'm actually getting an error in catalina.out *during compilation* (see log
extract below). I think that what's happening is that somehow the reload
process is being triggered early, during the build process, before
everything's ready. My guess is that this is being caused by the filter
getting compiled - perhaps this is caused by the line in context.xml?
("<WatchedResource>WEB-INF/web.xml</WatchedResource>")
I'm going to see what happens if I rename the filter to "ZZFilter" (to try
to change the build order).
